Join us on Tuesday, April 4, in the clubhouse ballroom for a concert by the UNT Jazz Strings Lab. Doors open at 6:30 p.m., and the concert starts at 7 p.m.
The Jazz Strings Lab, under the direction of Scott Tixier, is a new performing ensemble of the internationally acclaimed Jazz Studies Division within the University of North Texas College of Music. Created in 2019, the Jazz Strings Lab is noted for its unique and tight ensemble performance. Its sonic palette, like its range of interests, runs open and wide, performing repertoire from original compositions to jazz standards, experimental music, movie scoring, and more.
The Jazz Strings Lab was featured in numerous performances, including collaborations with The One O’Clock Lab Band and internationally renowned artists such as Regina Carter, Matt Jones, and Kurt Elling.
Tickets will be on sale for $15. They will go on sale at the activities director’s office on March 13 at 9 a.m. Cash, check, credit card, and member accounts are acceptable forms of payment. Seating will be theater style.
Ten dollars of each ticket will go directly to the RR UNT Scholarship provided to the College of Music’s best and the brightest musicians. Robson Ranch UNT Scholarship Committee is a group of generous Robson Ranch community members who collectively raise funds to provide scholarships to music students at the University of North Texas. Scholarships are open to all currently enrolled music students and awarded by the UNT College of Music’s Scholarship Committee. Our goal is to award several $1,000 scholarships per year. Out-of-state students who receive a competitive award of at least $1,000 may become eligible for in-state tuition for the academic year of the award, as granted by the university.
